POETICS Podcast: The Art of Book Production - host, Ben Rockwood
<p>Every poetry book you've ever held was shaped twice. Once by the poet, once by the press. Last episode, Ben Rockwood took us into the first half of the second shaping: layout, the work of the page. Today, he widens the lens. What a press is actually looking for in a submission, how to prepare a manuscript so it survives the trip into production, and a page-by-page tour of how a poetry book gets built, from the title spread to the colophon. Practical, opinionated, and especially useful for poets getting ready to send work out.</p> <br/><br/>Get full access to Bainbridge Island Press at <a href="https://bainbridgeislandpress.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_4">bainbridgeislandpress.substack.com/subscribe</a>

POETICS Podcast: "Muscle Memories of Love and Disaster," by Tim Mayo
<p>Available in POETICS Bookstore:</p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://bainbridgeisland.press/products/muscle-memories-of-love-and-disaster">Muscle Memory of Love and Disaster, poetry by Tim Mayo</a></p><p>If you open this book in the bookstore, open it to "At the Chemo Clinic" –– a powerful elegy that refuses to go quietly as a father accompanies his daughter to the chemo ward, and likens it to a kind of gas station, where nurses "attach the clear plastic hose to her chest and start the pump." In his poem "Self-portrait with Trache," Mayo writes "Grief is a black parrot in my throat." But there is more than grief in these poems. They tell us how a life is carried—stubbornly, tenderly—in the body––as the lyric moment glides from still-life landscapes and winter woods to hospital rooms, rehab corridors, and how life can still be remade with meaning via the music and clarity of poetry. An insistence on attentiveness lives fiercely in these compelling poems. — <strong>Ilya Kaminsky</strong>, author of Dancing in Odessa and Deaf Republic</p><p></p> <br/><br/>Get full access to Bainbridge Island Press at <a href="https://bainbridgeislandpress.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_4">bainbridgeislandpress.substack.com/subscribe</a>

POETICS Podcast: The Art of the Layout - designing poetry with Ben Rockwood
<p>Ever wondered why a poem feels different on the page than it does in your head? Join <strong>Ben Rockwood</strong> for a deep dive into the silent art of the layout. From the precise geometry of margins to the philosophy behind font selection, we explore how a press transforms a raw manuscript into a physical work of art. If you've ever wanted to know how an editor actually "builds" a page for poetry, this episode is your blueprint.</p> <br/><br/>Get full access to Bainbridge Island Press at <a href="https://bainbridgeislandpress.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_4">bainbridgeislandpress.substack.com/subscribe</a>
